User Story

I installed this from http://element.yandex.ru/
It prompts to change the search engine and homepage on install. It doesn't violate any policies here, but on uninstall, it does not revert the changes.
More pressing, though, is that it changes safe browsing preferences without prompting, and does not revert those changes on uninstall. The changes also result in breakage, as in bug 1048996.

The upcoming release 8.7.1 reverts the safe browsing pref on uninstall, other prefs will be fixed in the next release. I've created bug 1094618 for the performance issues to separate that from the safe browsing pref issue.

Just landed the latest repack in partner builds in bug 1094596, do to the large size of the patch it is only a cursory review. I've verified that the safe browsing pref is reverted on uninstall with this version (Yandex Elements 8.7.1). http://element.yandex.ru/ still has 8.7.0, I expect that will be updated for fx34.
